(Cask as Adnams German Style Kölner at Wenlock Arms, London) This was no kölsch. I don’t know whether that was even the aim but that was what I was expecting for. The beer lacked the freshness kölsch usually shows. Also, there was some sourness which I consider simply as a flaw. Not good. Nice attempt to do something different, though.

Cask at Southwark Tavern. OK, forget that this is supposed to be a Kolsch. Having been to Koln, this isn’t even close. But as a golden ale, it is pretty decent. Gold, thin white head. Drinkable enough for a light tasting beer with some ok yeast character, some odd peach fruit on the flavour. Good as a beer, but not as a Kolsch.
